I have 'fixed' my pigtail using #8 wire and the charger and the plug and receptacle are significantly cooler. The heat generated in the wire will also heat the plug and charger and cause the charger to overheat. With this fixed and the charger no longer overheating I was then getting...

I made new cables from the receptacle to the charger and from the charger to the car using #8 wire. The temp dropped over 30 degrees F at the receptacle and over 70 degrees F at the car when charging at 40 amps for 3 hours. I am hoping for # 8 wire and not just a sensor.

first... We have grid tied solar so it is far cheeper for us to charge from the solar than from the grid so there are many times that I want to be charging with 40 amps because we have sun. I set this on the charger using the 'slider'. 30 amp charging did not overheat the car or charger, 40...

I have fixed my charger so that it will not overheat when charging at 40 amp. I think the issue is that the wire that Porsche used for the pigtail and the cable to the car are 10 awg and rated for 40 amps at 194 degrees. I do not think the charger or car like 190 degrees F. After charging for 3...

I had to make it. I bought an 18" long pigtail with the 8 awg wire and then cut apart the connector from a Porsche pigtail and joined the 2.

We have the standard Porsche charger and 20KW grid tied solar. Up to this point, we manually charge with excess solar.

My wife picked up her 4S at the Atlanta Porsche Experience last week. What an amazing day. Got an hour and half in a Taycan Turbo on the track. Launch mode -- just makes you laugh out loud. 45 minutes on the track driving hard, calipers got warm to the touch. Handling is incredible. You'd...

My wife just picked up her 4S. We live in Aiken, SC and are thinking of planning a trip to Dallas. Looking at the suggested route of going up thru Nashville, yikes, we wondered can you travel via Porsche dealerships. We were told we can charge at the Porsche Dealer for free and it's 350KW...
